big_g Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 With the WEEEEEEEEE regulations regarding disposing of electrical equipment - is it possible to dispose of a portable television at a council tip?  Shame to dispose of it in this way really as it does work and has a remote. Tried to give it away on eBay and on here but no-one wants it. Never mind.  Anyhow, back to the question. Will a council tip take a TV with integrated video (and freeview box - but no remote for freeview box)? We usually use the tip at Shiregreen as it's probably the closest to Crosspool.  Cheers  G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marmalade3 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Yes, council tip will take electrical items - tv's usually have a separate bay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resident Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 If it's in good working condition why not donate it to a charity shop ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JL94x4 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 How big is the TV? CRT i'd hazard a guess at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chez2 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 As others have said, yes, thats what you are supposed to do with WEEE waste. The council will send it for recycling. Have you offered it on freegle/freecycle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
